Is the right ramp hard to hit? It seems like on odd angle to shoot for from the left flipper, where-as the left ramp is a pretty reliable shot with the curvature of the ramp.

I got a chance to flip GITS yesterday. The left ramp is really smooth, both directions. The right ramp is a challenging shot, but a good flip will get it up to the upper playfield consistently. I think the picture is deceiving as it looks like the angle of the ramp would be wrong, but it plays fine. Overall, good progress and I'm looking forward to playing it as it progresses.

I was thinking about your rotating ball lock on the upper playfield a few questions that I came up with:

Is there enough room to mount a motor and gearbox?

What type of motor gear box are you going to use?

Is there support for motor control with the boardset you're using?

How do you plan to control it? I could see using opto switches mounted behind the rotating wheel with flags that will pass the optos as it rotates. Or maybe put some notches on the edge of the wheel and microswitches mounted along the radius could keep track of position.

Nice work, Ed. I like the spinner, all games should have spinners. For a drop target bank, I think the classic Stern games had the "smoothest" drop target banks.

If you secrete something at MGC, I think there are going to be problems...

MGC is worth the trip, will be a great show this year.

What's going on this weekend?

Blaze orange - good contrast

Any new updates?

Are you bringing to MGC again?

How about these for artwork?

Good luck, not much time left before MGC...

I'm hoping that is a typo above
